That's probably the best way (easiest to maintain),
provided you can force them to stay in sync vertically. 


For a cheap hack, have a look at LSR502 
http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=502   
If you typeset this snippet with the following music (sic) 
included simultaneously you get the attached muntin.png 
which you can then split graphically. 

muntin = 
{
 s2.*4
 \once \override Score.BarLine #'thin-kern = #12
 \bar "||" 
 s2.*4
}


Or (more postprocessing!) make a collage of individual systems 
which you can generate as png files using clip.regions, as in: 

\layout 
{ 
 indent = 0 

 clip-regions = #(list
   (cons
     (make-rhythmic-location 1 0 1)
     (make-rhythmic-location 3 0 1))
   (cons
     (make-rhythmic-location 3 0 1)
     (make-rhythmic-location 5 0 1))
   )
}
